Notes
Taking place between [sn42656 The Reynolds Pamphlet] and [sn42657 Burn] in the Off-Broadway version of Hamilton, [sn45583 Congratulations] was cut from the final version. However, several lines appear into the final version of [sn42656 The Reynolds Pamphlet].

In the song, Angelica has returned to the United States following the events of [sn42656 The Reynolds Pamphlet] and Alexander's confession to the affair. And she really lets him have it.

In [i]Hamilton: The Revolution[/i] (p. 235), Lin wrote of this song: "It came between [sn42656 The Reynolds Pamphlet] and [sn42657 Burn], But we realized that the audience desperately wanted to see Eliza's reaction, so I folded the best parts of it into [sn42656 The Reynolds Pamphlet].
